It does not mean anything except that it is called a 'Vulgar (or common) Fraction'. It can be mathematically converted into a Decimal Fraction by dividing the numerator , by the denominator. EG. 4 divided by 9 = 0.44444 repeating. It simply means that it it is an Indeterminate quantity and no matter how many times you keep dividing it, there will always be a remainder. It is quite OK to say that 4/9 = 0.4 repeating. You don't have to use more than 1 figure 4 after the decimal point because they will all repeat the same as the first number after the point.
0.4444 repeating
11 and 4/9 as a decimal is 11.'4' recurring '4'
3.444...
36 and four-ninths as a decimal = 36.4436 4/9= 36 + (4 ÷ 9)= 36 + 0.44= 36.44
Expressed as a decimal fraction, this is equal to 4.4 recurring (that is, 4.4444...)

one and four ninths as a decimal = 1.4444
Four over five is .8 as a terminating decimal.
Four sevenths is not even a decimal, so the answer is No.

That depends what part of the decimal is repeating: 4.23232323... is equal to 4 23/99 or four and twenty-three ninety-ninths. 4.23333... is equal to 4 7/30 or four and seven thirtieths.
